In this article, we will help you better understand the key information available about your sensor fleet and how to use it to take the necessary actions for its proper functioning.
You will learn:
- How to export your sensor fleet
- Which information is available in the application
- How to interpret this data
- Which maintenance actions to anticipate
Presentation of the “All sensors” tab
Once logged into the Weenat app, go to the left-hand menu, under the “All sensors” section.
This space centralises all sensors linked to your organisation.
Available information
From this view, you can access a wide range of useful data to monitor the state of your fleet.
Filterable information:
You can filter your sensors by several criteria:
- Sensor model (Weather Station, Tensiometer, etc.)
- Owner, if you manage a network of farms
- Ongoing events (blocked spoon, interrupted transmission, etc.)
Information displayed in the view and export:
Some information is directly visible and also included in the export:
- Transmission quality
- Last message received
- Battery replacement date
Additional information available in the export:
Exporting your fleet gives you access to additional data:
- Sensor location
- Commissioning date
- Date added to the organisation
Rotronic probe replacement date
How to export the list of your sensors?
To export all information related to your fleet, click the “Export” button at the top right of the screen.
The generated file allows you to consult and analyse your sensors outside the application.
Other available actions
From this same view, you can also:
- Add new sensors via the button to the left of “Export”. 💡 Tip: if you add an irrigation sensor, don’t forget to link it to a plot to access its data!
- Access quick actions using the three dots at the end of each sensor row.
Why export your sensor fleet?
Exporting your fleet gives you a complete and up-to-date overview of your sensors. It is a key tool to:
- Quickly detect anomalies
- Anticipate maintenance operations
- Plan battery or probe replacements
- Optimise equipment performance
How to interpret the data and which actions to take?
This table guides you on the possible actions:
| Information | How to interpret it | Actions to take |
|---|---|---|
| Commissioning date | Helps know the sensor’s age |
If the sensor is older than 2 years, consider replacing the battery. Also check the “Battery replacement date” column. |
| Battery replacement date | Tracks battery replacement history |
If the last replacement was more than 2 years ago, plan a new one. Record each replacement in the app. |
| Rotronic/humidity probe replacement date | Indicates whether recalibration is needed | Recalibration recommended every 2 years, or yearly depending on use (performed by a partner lab). |
| Ongoing events | Indicates an active anomaly | Apply the corrective actions described for each event in this article. |
| Signal quality | Shows the emission quality over the last 7 days (%) | If degraded, consult the dedicated article to identify possible causes and actions. |
